Things to see and do with kids in Las Vegas

Las Vegas Kids Attractions

At first Las Vegas may seem bright and brash, no place to take
kids on holiday, but this fun and fantasy-filled city is described
as the world's largest theme park - what more could a child want?
Set in the middle of the vast Mojave Desert, this vibrant holiday
destination offers everything from wildlife viewing to theme parks
and shopping malls. Naturally there are many places in Vegas which
are not suitable for children, but a concerted effort has been made
to accommodate families, with family-friendly resorts springing up
in and around the city.

Kids on holiday in Las Vegas will immediately be impressed by
the re-created New York and Paris skylines, seen from The Strip,
and revel in the adventurous notion of exploring the canals of
Venice or the Egyptian pyramids. And all the pretty Las Vegas
lights, so many lights everywhere! An 8pm bedtime will be a tough
call...

In an attempt to lure gamblers to the casinos to squander all
their cash, Las Vegas accommodation and restaurants are
surprisingly affordable - a real benefit for families on holiday.
The pursuit of pleasure by both parents and children alike is
possible year-round; the summers in Las Vegas are definitely
hotter, but everything is air-conditioned.
